You know, I just want to say, Keep it FUN.
Sometimes I concentrate too hard on the "sketch" and get lost in it,
or actually "box" myself in a corner.
It is a sketch, though it is "unscripted"
Feel free to add whimsy, with buttons or embellishments.
Consider the sketch the bare bones that you will
ADD your PIZAZZ to!
I did just that.
I added some buttons to jazz it up, and I think it makes it playful!
Use what you have, use what you love, and you will LOVE your results!
Have fun and join us too

Oooohhhhh...I love it!
You made a fabulous design choice when you added that triangle. I love how it looks! Very chic!
I knew I was going to love this the second I saw the preview! And you did not disappoint! Love the paper, love the accents, love the sentiment! Totally love what you did with this sketch!!
LOVE!!!!! :)
Gorgeous! I love the way you layered the patterned paper and that birdie looks fabulous in blue!
Oh, this is so fun and lovely.
You've captured my 'issues' of late perfectly in "Sometimes I concentrate too hard on the "sketch" and get lost in it, or actually "box" myself in a corner." Mind-reading now added to your repertoire of exceptional abilities! YES, I've been trying to hard, to do what others do (failing to remember that I'm a beginner!!), with limited success (some hits, plenty of misses", and posting totally amateurish, mediocre, not always 'me' stuff! You're advice - I need to take it to heart! I need to work on developing 'my' style rather than replicating someone elses! Oh, but you're great for the spirit! Your card is gorgeous, and that sentiment is perfect! My visit here proved its truth!! Something wonderful happened - your post!!

What a fabulous interpretation of the sketch, Kimberly! I LOVE your buttons, and all the angles on this card...so pretty!
LOVE your card. Great embellishments and that triangle is pretty (lovely patterned paper) and I love how it is places. Thank you for linking up to Crafty Creations. I hope you will share with us again.
